Kiara pov: Mumei, Fauna, Moona-senpai, Iofi-senpai, Pekora-senpai, Kaela, Zeta, and I went hunting for Suisei-senpai; apparently, according to Mumei, she should have a tracker, but that seemed to be broken or something as it wasn't responding to her tracker.

"Maybe I should call Sana to see why the tracker isn't responding." Mumei sighe

"That seems like a good idea," I told her.

"Hello Meimei, what do you need?" Sana asked as soon as she picked up the phone.

"So why isn't Suisei's tracker working?" Mumei asked

"Don't you remember Meimei?" "She left the council ages ago and then probably turned it off," Sana said.

"No, I don't remember this..." Mumei said

"That was back when you were hiding out," I stated.

"Well, why the hell did you let her out?" Mumei asked

"I had nothing to do with that!" I said

"Meimei, she said she'd be back," Sana said.

"Ugh, I can't be mad at my adorable cinnamon bun," Mumei said.

"Mumei, can I steal that and maybe use that as a bun later?" Ina said

I physically saw Mumei cringe at the pun and gag at it.

"Mumei, it couldn't have been that bad," I said.

"You're right, it was atrocious!" Mumei said

"Come on, Mumei," Fauna cooed as she hugged her from behind.

"Fauna," Mumei said softly.

"Okay, let's get the hunt started," I said.

"I think Suisei is at a wedding, Peko." Pekora-senpai said

"How do you know?" I asked

"She's advertising it." Moona-senpai said

"Huh...." Mumei stated

"Are we really going to crash the wedding?" I asked

"N-no...." I sighed

"Wait, didn't Suisei leave like two days ago?" "How is she at a wedding?" Sana asked

"Maybe they planned this ahead of time," I said.

"Maybe," Sana said.

"Mumei, can we go on a honeymoon?" Fauna asked

"We already went on one." Momei was confused by Fauna.

"But can the three of us go on another one?" I asked

"Sure, where to?" Mumei asked

"Uhm, I'll tell you later," Fauna said.

"Okay," Mumei laughed.

"Mumei, we probably should check the sky to find the venue faster," I suggested.

"Yeah, but it'll take forever for the others to follow on foot," Mumei said.

"You carried me, Mumei," Fauna said.

"That is true, Kiara. "Can you carry both Moona and Pekora-senpai?" Mumei asked

"Maybe if Pekora-senpai goes into rabbit form," I said.

Mumei and I decided to fly into the air and scout out the area first since it'd be easier that way since we didn't have to carry anyone first. We flew around the town and looked at every venue we could find while Moona-senpai talked to Sana on the phone.

"So are you sure she went here?" Mumei asked as she landed and picked up the phone.

"Yeah, Meimei, that was where she asked to go," Sana said.

"So is she here or not?" Fauna asked

"She probably isn't there, Faufau," Sana said.

"Then why are we here?" Mumei asked

"Wait! "I think I sense Suisei!" I said

"Wait, I do too." Mumei and Moona-senpai said

"Sana, by chance did you give her access to portals?" Mumei asked

"I think I gave her a few," Sana said.

"She must be underground, Peko," Pekora-senpai said as her ears twitched and pointed at the ground.

"Huh, well, how do we get down there?" I questioned.

"Kiara, to be honest, I've had a lot of stuff build up inside me: stress, anger, sadness, regret, pain, happiness, and a whole lot of other emotions. "Every time I felt those, I shut them inside me," Mumei said.

"What are you saying?" I asked

"I saved up a lot of kinetic energy, and I'm now going to punch the ground," Mumei said.

"Don't destroy the planet like last time!" Fauna said

"Like last time?" I said I was confused by what Fauna had said.

"Look, Sana destroyed the earth more than me!" Mumei said

"That isn't exactly wrong," Sana laughed.

"Mumei, please hold back," I said.

"Eh, as long as it's not the moon, I'm fine." Moona-senpai said

"Are you really this lax?" I asked

"Sometimes," Moona-senpai said.

"Have you seen her with Ollie?" "That's the opposite of lax," Mumei said.

"Well, she seems pretty relaxed right now," I said.

"Yeah, right now," Mumei added.

"Meimei, did you punch the ground yet?" Sana asked

"No, give me a countdown, Fauna!" Mumei said

"Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one punch!" Fauna said

As soon as she said one, Mumei punched the ground as hard as she could, and we began to fall further into the earth until we hit a meat ceiling of some kind.

"The venue is there," I said.

"Yup," Mumei said.

"Why is there metal?" Moona-senpai asked

"That's not normal metal," Mumei explained.

"Then what is it?" I asked

"It is metal that Fauna and I can't break," Mumei said.

"Wait, only you two?" I asked

"No, all of council is included," Mumei said.

"Who made it?" I asked.

"Me" Mumei stated

"Senpai, we found an underground entrance," I said.

"Where the hell were two?" Mumei asked

"Ela and I were looking for clues!" Zeta said

"To be honest, we got lost...." Kaela said

"No, we did not!" Zeta hissed

"What is your problem today?" Mumei asked

"A lot of things," Zeta said.

Anyways, we needed a way inside, and we needed to either break the top or get to the entrance that Zeta and Kaela found, which they seemed to forget where the hell it is.

We didn't have time for this; we needed to find them soon. I have no idea what we'll do if we can't get Suisei back since we need more power to open a portal to the council.

"Zeta, you're with me," Mumei said.

"Alright Mumei-senpai!" Zeta said

"That means I'm with Kaela?" I asked

"Yeah, since Moona is with Pekora-senpai," Mumei said.

Since we all understood, we scattered and got on the search.
